ORIGIN

This 1990 240 DL was sold new in San Francisco, California and has remained in the Bay Area since. The car is finished in metallic gold over a tan fabric interior and powered by a 2.3L four paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. A brake refresh in October 2017 consisted of new rotors, calipers, and pads at all four corners, while the driveline fluids and filters were changed in January 2018. The seller has added about 800 of the 149k indicated miles since purchasing the car a year ago, and a California emissions test was passed on July 30, 2018. This 240 sedan is sold with a clean Carfax report, maintenance records to 2012, a Haynes repair manual, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in pale metallic gold, and the paintwork is shown up close in a number of gallery photos below. The seller notes checking on the stock black window trim under the window. A minor dent is also visible at the center left of the hood. No accidents are shown on the Carfax report.

The DL trim includes electric mirrors and a rear window defroster, while 14″ steel wheels wear full plastic covers and are fitted with BFGoodrich tires at all four corners. Standard US-spec lighting and bumpers are retained front and back, and a Thule rack with a bike rail is mounted on the rain gutters.

The interior features seating for five in tan fabric upholstery, with 3-point seatbelts and headrests for four occupants. Electric windows and black Weather Tech rubber floor mats are fitted all around. An aftermarket head unit and speakers have replaced the originals. The mechanical odometer shows 149k miles, with about 800 added by the seller over the past year.

The 2.3-liter B230 SOHC “red block” four featured standard Bosch LH-Jetronic 2.2 electronic fuel injection for 1990 and produced 114 horsepower with 136 lb-ft of torque when new. Power is sent to the rear axle via a 3-speed automatic transmission with a 4th gear/overdrive. A service conducted in January 2018 included changing all driveline fluids as well as new filters where applicable.

Additional underbody photos are provided in the gallery below.

Available service records from the prior owner and seller collectively date back to January 2012, and the Carfax report below shows past service entries from 1999 onward.
